Texas HERO wins RESNET Industry Innovation Leadership Award

At the annual RESNET® conference in Raleigh, North Carolina Texas HERO received a leadership award for "2010 Industry Innovation" for the Texas Home Energy Audit program.  The Program targets the existing homes market and emphasizes the role of HERS® Raters and objective analysis in addressing a key market barrier to homeowner action - lack of credible information.

The Industry Innovation Leadership Award was announced by RESNET Executive Director Steve Baden and presented by RESNET Board President David Goldstein.  Tom Fitzpatrick accepted the award for Texas HERO and thanked Oncor for their key support of the Program, and recognized Texas HERO's past President Steve Saunders of Irving for originating the initiative.
